I had the #12 this weekend and it blows Jack out of the water... I always heard Dickel was better but never bought any and now i wont stop buying it... Tullahoma is pretty close to our farm and I just never stopped by the distillery, think i will now as well...

Jack will work, as will Jim. George is good. Bookers is better.

If you've never been to the distillery, it's worth the trip. Don't be expecting a large operation, because it isn't. ** The state just passed a law allowing other counties in the state to operate a distillery. Might see a new market of micro-distilleries starting up.

Had a wee dram of Gentleman Jack last night and it's a cut above the standard black label IMO. I'm more a scotch guy myself and I leave the bourbons to my brother and dad and that has worked well as long as they bring a bottle of that Buffalo Trace bourbon to camp.

elkhunter76...if you like Knob Creek, try Buffalo Trace, its a bit milder on the charred oak taste and 2/3 the price..... Sako75; I read a whiskey book that put George Dickel #12 way up there, so I tried it...it IS good...but not exactly what I'm looking for...( and the "looking for" is the fun part!)  My taste buds are shot anyway, I like Wild Turkey 80 better than 101 so this is definitely a FWIW post!  Ingwe

George is a standard for the pre hunting trip to the shack.

I used to drink George D along time ago when I could get it in 101 proof.I liked it a whole lot.It went real good with pickled eggs and Penrose hot sausages.I wonder if 101 is available nowadays?I got to where I was eatin' a real good many of those eggs and sausages back then.

Dickle ain't bad,but I'm an irish/scotch whiskey fan,the corn liquour always seemed to lead to a fight in deer camp.

Never tried Dickel, may have to now.
Never been a fan of either Jack or Crown for some reason, Jack I can go with, but it doesn't impress.. But Crown I can't even go.
We've been on Brooks and Beam here the last years.
We can keep Larry Root and all his idiotic blabber and user names on here, but we can't get Ralph back..... Whiskey Tango Foxtrot, over....

Many a cold fishing trip has been made bearable by George Dickel.
